Your cat will notice the difference in taste when eating LEONARDO ® fresh meat food. Our recipes are very easy to digest because in addition to their high meat content, our food contains high-quality vegetables. Vegetables, herbs and a berry mixture provide valuable nutrients that supplement the natural nutritional needs.
Special ingredients such as cranberries, chlorella algae and chia seeds have a positive effect on your cat's well-being and are part of the holistic nutrition that is the basis of all LEONARDO ® fresh meat foods.
85% fresh meat
Fresh meat is a cat's natural food. The advantage of gently prepared fresh meat is that it retains its good qualities better and is less processed and tastier.
15% holistic ingredients
Vegetables, fruits and holistic ingredients. Chia seeds are rich in omega-3 and 6 fatty acids, support digestion and give a feeling of satiety. Chlorella algae supports the immune system and maintains a good intestinal bacterial population, as well as supporting skin and coat and oral health. Berries and herbs contain natural polyphenols and protect cells. Krill is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and phospholipids, astaxanthin and other nutrients. Cranberries support urinary tract function. Olive extract protects cells (effective antioxidant) and supports heart function.
Low in carbohydrates
Leonardo FRESH foods contain only a small amount of carbohydrates (less than 20%). In addition, Amaranth and peas have a very low glycemic index (amaranth GI 35 and peas GI 30). Thanks to the low glycemic index, the rise in blood sugar after eating is slower and more moderate, which also keeps the cat fuller for longer. This is especially beneficial for cats with diabetes.
Traditional carbohydrates used in cat food, potatoes and grains, have a high glycemic index (potatoes GI 80 and grains GI 70)
Natural food
A cat's natural food contains only a small amount of carbohydrates. Leonardo Fresh Meat foods contain carbohydrates at the same level as studies* have shown that a cat would choose if it were free to choose its food from a variety of nutrients.
